Reader: Only Overweight, Lonely Women Hate on Strippers

• Picture walking down the street getting harrased, yelled at, catcalls or being a waitress and always getting that awkward treatment from the insecure girl of the couple you're waiting on. Or having a hard time keeping a friend because they think their boyfriends secretively want you. It's annoying to walk in any room in public getting stared at by men and mean mugged by women. It sucks even more to get disrespected and sexually harassed at your everyday run of the mill, low income, 9-5 job. Sounds like you're a great candidate to become a stripper! Degrading? Who cares?! You can make a couple grand in one weekend! I would never date a guy that goes into my club! Gross! Their sexually sick jack.... Who disrespect women! So don't date those creeps! And u don't have to worry! What kinda weirdo would spend all his $$ just to get a woody then leave! Losers! So I degrade their wallets! Think about it cheerleading Is even degrading! Who cares! Make that $ just f Don't let it make u.Oh but your scared? Suck it up u can retire in your 30's! The reason anyone hates on strippers is the killer amount of cash we're making and that they don't have the nerve or body to try it themselves! Lady gaga was a stripper! Oh okay then do what your parents and society tell you too then and keep on bitc.....! Btw paid my way through school and also now have real estate liscence and investment prop. So keep on judging, but my life rockd

• @justasking Drop your bags run away from any thread associated with this victim! Plz let's not rekindle this shit storm. Curious, your welcome 2 join us on any other thread.

• So i have to ask, does that mean me who hate male strippers are also overweight and lonely and have self esteem issues, or does this piece of wisdom only go one way? Just asking. I don't hate strippers, I just feel sorry for them. What a crap ass job.

• I don't hate strippers, though the comment "and everything they stand for' implies they stand for something. They take thier clothes off for money, that isn't exactly a political statement. My biggest problem with strip clubs/stripping is that they are ridicuously over priced, the women are more often than not drug addicts on their way to becoming full time prostitutes (don't believe me, look it up. Most of them end up taking it much further) and the people who go come home smelling like old sweaty crotch and cheap body spray. You can waste money on a non drug addict girl who doesn't smell like stale pussy and have a better chance of getting laid. Why bother with a strip club? You really like 10 dollar sodas?

• It is entirely possible to find "stripping/dancing" degrading and demeaning toward women without having any insecurities of one's own. I certainly don't hate those women at all. I feel sorry for them that they choose to make their income that way, as though their only value in this world is due to their bodies. That is what is sad about it - it cheapens women as humans, and panders to the lowest element of society. To each his own but some people find it seedy, disgusting and morally bankrupt. That doesn't mean one "hates" or is jealous, at all. Any educated and intelligent woman would just feel sorry for them that they felt they had to make a living that way. It cannot be fun and you cannot feel good about yourself when that's how you earn your money. But, to each his own. No reasonable person would want or desire them to come to any harm, either. That should go without saying.

• I am skinny and very hot... My RR nick name is Stripperella after the pam anderson cartoon. However, I still think there are better ways to make money. when you start to look like sh** then where do you work Walmart? Educate yourself that is power ladies, it never deminishes, sas or wrinkles, we all have tits and ass. Some just lack brains. I think a womans body ( when fit) is a work of art not a thing to be hustled. And when you force men to buy drinks they drive and thats a whole new topic.

• actually Jinx. a morally upstanding person refuses to have anything to do with strippers if at all possible. . and it does not matter if the person is a female or male. . plus once a person realizes that the strippers tend to look at the clients as nothing more than pieces of meat with money on them. and that the stripper will NOT give you the time of the day unless you are willing to pay for it. it makes the person who goes there. alot less likely to.

• Ugh! As someone who has worked pizza shops, waitressing, bartending, ect. It really sucks to give your all and do the best humanly possible, have people touching, making comments, girls being bitches because you're attractive, guys being pigs, and NOT be tipped graciously/accordingly. it sounds crazy but I'm ready to start dancing just to be appreciated!! If you let it degrade you, get into drugs, prostitution, ect. That's your weak will, not the industry. As with everything there is all types of girls. Guys are drooling over you and giving you money just to look at you so to all the feminists out there, what isn't empowering about that?! What MAN has that ability, option or PRIVILEGE?! To the jealous girlfriends: it's a FANTASY. If he wanted to cheat he would hire a prostitute or hook up with another girl/ co-worker, ect. Not go somewhere to have a beautiful girl pretend she's interested in him for a fee. Maybe if you did it at home he wouldn't need to pay someone else to. Poorly worded article but I totally agree with you, instead of fat or whatever wording you used I would say insecure.

• honestly no im a teenager but im not the jealous type ,i have alot of confidence in myself and pretty good body.and i can say strippers irritate me. mostley because it makes the rest of us look bad.to me men still look at women as sex objects and stripping is conding that and its nearly impossible for a woman to say im smart and successful and i did it all with my clothes on.i think its degrading and pathetic to all women and i feel all men expect all women to act like that wich is just not cool

• No, not only fat, lonely girls hate on strippers. That was quite stupid to say. I'm not the skinniest person in the world and i have no issue with strippers or any girls for that matter. The type of girls that hate on strippers are mostly jealous girls. ad they are not all fat. I don;t think you put much thought behind your statement. All sizes of girls hate on other girls, that is just the way most girls, skinny or not are. As i said i a not super skinny, but not fat and i am all for girls that want to be strippers. if they can handle it then awesome, its great money, good for them, but to say only fat girls hate them was ignorant. Jealous girls, who are all sizes, hate strippers.

• I've been to the 'popular' strip clubs in Los Angeles, California (bacheloret party, Spelling)...I could CARELESS if my guy goes to them. He can't touch the women, they look like zoned out, hopped up on drugs, zombies who, in my opinion seem SMELLY... The male strippers are worse. Women CAN and DO touch them... To each their own, I guess.

• I have to agree with this topic. If they werent jealous they wouldnt of gave a s*** about them.

• I'm an overweight, lonely woman who happens to love strippers. I could never hate them, not even when they take all my money.

• Jinx, I saw that reader's post too and it made me lose a little more hope in humanity. As Bheobe said, "no person was ever meant to be a murder victim." I live in Fort Worth and have seen this woman before at Baby Dolls. It tears my heart to see such a nice and beautiful person cut down in the prime of their life. And I agree with your post, these girls have it hard enough already without people targeting them like this. At least justice will be served.

• Fatties, ug-o's and strippers. They are all such easy targets for tastless flak comments.... no person was EVER meant to be a murder victim

• Tee, the comment was made in response to another reader's post where she stated that this woman deserved to be murdered because of the line of work she was in.

• Considering all the crime reports we get every day about violence against sex workers, including exotic dancers, it seems to me that the ones with a "hate on" for these women are the violent men who harm them. Sure, obese women may be envious of these younger, physically attractive women, but these same fat gals sure as hell aren't killing strippers and sex workers.

• I am not lonely overweight or jealous of the attention strippers get, I just dont want some girls crotch in my boyfriends face, knowing that shell put her crotch in any mans face w a 5 dollar bill. I dont hate strippers, I mean at least they're working, and not all strippers are sluts but I think my boyfriend should only have my crotch in his face :)

• I agreed with u when u said it the first time Jinx, I understood what u ment u were'nt being simple minded u were bieng thougtful, puttin thought behind ur comments and that says alot on here these days.

• The only dancers I like work at the Clermont Lounge here in Atlanta, they work hard for the money! And IMHO (((adjusting monocle))) they can call themselves dancers, but it all boils down to shaking your silicone and shoving your hoo-hoo-dilly in someone's face, whether you like them or not. And if my dude du an wants to go out to the scrip club with his buddies for a special occasion, sure, go, have a good time! But the guy who goes night after night, pining over the girls, that is just damn sad!

• I agree with the topic. Most women are jealous of other women if they have a better body or they are prettier. Women are just nasty most of the time to each other. Sad but true. Look at this girl she is beautiful what man would not look at her? Some mean person reads this story and right away she deserves what happened to her because of were she works? What a bunch of crap. RIP

• Jinx, usually the only ones who would take offense to that is the people its true about.

• Maybe you guys are right, and I appreciate it. I just wanted to be clear that I wasn't really aiming to offend, and the way I'd originally posted, obviously, could be taken as pretty offensive to certain people. Wasn't my goal, that's all.

• Jinx, I agree with TARA. I don't really think you had anything to apologize for! You put your opinion out there. We all do! And at some point we might get attacked for it, but its still our opinion. Look at mine yesterday! I got comment of the day and I said the mom was a shitty ass mom! Bad choice of words? Eh could have worded it better probably! But, that's what I think of her! So, I didn't really think you needed to apologize cause for one, your somewhat right! Its the people who are jealous that usually have a probelm with someone!

• Pete, no worries, and thank you.

• Either way, I think people were misreading it and you didn't really have anything to apologize for, at least not in my opinion. People just need to take the time to read comments and what they actually say, not what people THINK they say.

• Sorry if I misrepresented what you said, Jinx, though I didn't think you had any ill-will in your comment.

• I did not say "only" (Pete did for me) - I said "I find that the typical.." etc. And again, I apologize :|

• Well, to be fair, you didn't say that ALL overweight and/or lonely women hate on strippers. You just said those are the only ones that do. But I agree with the other posters that usually it is those women who don't feel secure with themselves. I read the original story where you apologized tho, lol. So I get that you didn't feel comfortable with what you said. But you didn't word it the way that some people seem to be reading it.

• In defense of the ogre who wrote this terrible post.. Jinx said: To Me, yeah I regretted hitting post as soon as I hit it. I wasn't very tactful at all in trying to get my point across. There are plenty of women who are very self confident and secure with themselves who aren't supermodels. The oppinion I was trying to stress was that the majority of the people who tend to bitch about people that make a living in a job where being good looking gives an edge are people who were lacking in the area of self confidence. I apologize for the verbage I used before. Back on subject though, whatever profession we work in, we all do the best we can with what we can. Don't knock someone for finding ways to put food on their table. At least they're not on the corner with a cardboard sign that says "Will eat for food" Sheepish, -Jinx Posted 03/03/2010 at 02:03:54 PM

• Hmm.. nice that you didn't note that I've already apologized for the way I made my comment. But if it spurs reaction I can understand why you decided not to.

• I would disagree. I think any woman who is insecure in their own bodies, or insecure in their relationships have problems with "Dancers." It also has a lot to do with society and religion...even though the worlds oldest professions is? Sometimes people forget how to use their own brains and are happy letting society decide things for them. General population thinks Nude Bars are wrong, so naturally the sheep of the world will think the same way. Oh and my mom is a 289lbs lady who loves dancers! It just comes down to who the person is.

• long time reader, first time poster, yes I totally agree, although I would just extend it to women with major self esteem issues. I have known a few girls over the years that have been dancers (BTW, the PC term for strippers is "dancers", some girls get offended if you call them strippers), at some point in thier lives and they were all single moms just trying to make some extra money to support thier kids. I never had a problem with my ex going, although he claims he really didnt like it (he's also a cheap a**)I have been before, it was fun, cheap beer but its not something I would do all the time. I never understood some womens position that it is degrading, if anything I think it is empowering, women making money with the gifts the good lord gave them. You go girl(s)!

• Pete knows he could have included what Jinx said the next day after writing this...but again...just wants to get everyone all worked up.

• I don't think the attention strippers get is anything to be jealous of. Men want them physically but do not respect them as a human being at all. They get their jollies and then it's back home to the wives and /or girlfriends. Or even boyfriends, but that's another topic for another day. I have heard and read horror stories about how men treat strippers, like putting cigarettes out on them, etc, they use them like Kleenex...hardly anything to aspire to or be envious of. A perfect example of the Madonna/Whore complex. The "bad woman" to use for pleasure and the "good woman" to keep at home raising your kids.

• I don't think that only overweight, lonely women hate on strippers. However, I partially agree with what he said. I've gone to the strip club with my husband before. He won't go with his guy friends alone, but he likes for me to take him. I don't mind. I would never be a stripper, not in a million years but I can't hate on those who are.
